"It is impossible to pay reparations. In this life, it is impossible for China to pay reparations to the Japanese!"
In the conference room, many high-level officials of the Nationalist Government were sitting. Everyone knew that Commander-in-Chief Jiang had met the Japanese envoy, and they understood the request made by the Japanese envoy. Everyone was talking about it.
"What De Lin said is right. Japan invaded our territory for no reason. Now, it seems that we can no longer hold on. We cannot give up halfway! If we pay compensation, then the millions of people and soldiers who died may not be able to rest in peace! What's more!
, this is something that will be stabbed in the spine by the people!" Chen Cheng stood up and looked at Chairman Chiang, "So, compensation is impossible! If Japan is really sincere and wants to achieve peace, it should let them take the initiative to withdraw its troops!"
Li Zongren nodded.
Many people also nodded.
On this matter, everyone's views are relatively consistent.
Chairman Jiang frowned. What everyone said was good, but the recent development of the Eighth Route Army had made him a little scared! Even if they united with the Japanese before, they could not wipe out the Eighth Route Army, which became a worry for him.
"Jingzhi, what do you think?" Jiang Zhongzheng looked at another general, He Yingqin, one of his most trusted subordinates.
"Commission, the Japanese's idea is, firstly, to delay time and not want us to fight with them; secondly, the Japanese want to preserve their military strength in China. After all, if we rebel, then they will not
There may be no casualties; third, the Japanese want to divide our anti-Japanese united front." He Yingqin frowned, "The Japanese are very cruel."
"That's right!"
"The Japanese do have sinister intentions."
Everyone agreed that they were all soldiers. Since they were soldiers, seeing that victory was imminent, they were waiting for Japan to be defeated in the Pacific and join forces with the US military to launch a counterattack. How could they compromise with the Japanese now? But the Japanese could just withdraw their troops unconditionally.
Actually asking them to pay compensation is considered buying land?
The Qing Dynasty did such a thing, but they can no longer do it!
They have persisted for so many years and finally reached the current situation. Do they still want the Japanese to do whatever they say?
"But in fact, what the Japanese did is also good for the party-state!" Someone said, "If the Japanese can withdraw their troops, then the party-state can return to the state it was in before the Japanese invaded China. At that time, it will restore all the lost territory, concentrate its forces, and destroy
…”
There was a bang on the table, and Li Zongren got angry, "What nonsense are you talking about!"
So, the person who opened his mouth shut his mouth.
At this time, everyone also paid attention to the person who spoke, and then shook their heads.
As the top leaders of the National Government, they know very well what the top person is thinking. These words are in line with the Chairman's wishes, but this is traitorous!
"Okay, let's take a look at the recent Japanese intelligence and see what the Japanese are up to." Chairman Jiang frowned and glanced at Li Zongren, feeling that Li Zongren's temper was really worse than that of the Chairman.
A little bigger.
Li Zongren, on the other hand, accepted Chairman Jiang's gaze, sat down expressionlessly, and then began to read the prepared documents. This meeting was just to clarify the Japanese's purpose.
However, these words have already entered the minds of some people.
After all, what he said is actually not wrong, if the issue of principle is put aside.
…
Takeshita Shun and Takeshita Takeshiro were visiting Chongqing.
Chongqing has experienced several bombings, but now it is still lively.
"As expected of the capital of China." Takeshita Shun narrowed his eyes. He has been to Nanjing and Beijing, but has never been to Xi'an. Several ancient capitals in China are all attractive to him.
"Indeed." Takeshita Lang also looked at the bustling streets, the setting sun, people coming and going, and all kinds of noise. It seemed that he had not seen this kind of scene in Tokyo for a long time.
"Tokyo is not as prosperous as here." Takeshita Shun arrived at a small stall, which sold some groceries, folding fans and calligraphy supplies. "Boss, how do you sell fans?"
"Hey, sir, the handful in your hand only costs 50 yuan!" The stall owner is a middle-aged man with a yellowish and rough complexion. It can be seen that he comes from a poor family.
"50 French currency?" Takeshita Jun wondered, when did China's prices become so expensive? A folding fan actually costs 50 French currency? As a Japanese, Takeshita Jun sometimes doesn't understand China very well. As the Nationalist Government continues to
The printing of legal currency has completely devalued it.
"Yes."
"Okay, take two." Takeshita Jun didn't hesitate much. He just bought it, took out a hundred-yuan French currency, and handed it to the stall owner.
"Master, do you want to buy something else? Look at this, this ink is not as good as this. You can buy some more brushes and ink, and add a word to this fan yourself. It will be more sentimental." The stall owner smiled.
He smiled and could see that the man in front of him was considered a rich man.
Takeshita Jun raised his eyebrows and smiled, "That's fine, but you have to choose the pen and ink well."
"Don't worry. Look at this. This is a fine langhao pen. The words you write are strong and powerful!"
"I want it, wrap it up."
"Okay, look at this piece of ink again. The texture is fine and solid, and, look, it glows with blue light!" The stall owner picked up an ink ingot and said to Takeshita Toshita.
"Okay, wrap it up." Takeshita Shun did not refuse. Naturally, he can write calligraphy. Most people in this era can do it as long as they have gone to school. Moreover, among Japanese officers, there are also many people who like Chinese calligraphy.
Takeshita Jun is one of them.
"Great!" the stall owner beamed, "This one costs 90 yuan, this ink costs 90 yuan, plus two folding fans, the total is 280 yuan! I charged you 100 yuan! There is still 140 yuan left!"
Takeshita Jun smiled and nodded, "Can't it be cheaper? It's a good business anyway. Just treat it like I bought a fan, a pen, and ink, and treat the other fan as a gift. How about
?”
"Oh, sir, this is all a small business..."
Takeshita Jun smiled and shook his head, "Okay, let's buy another inkstone and a paperweight."
"okay!"
Following the stall owner's introduction to Takeshita Jun, Takeshita Jun actually bought a set of pens, inks, paper and inkstones, spending a total of 500 French currency.
"Young Master, I think the quality of this ink, paper and inkstone is only average, but it cost us 500 French coins..." Takeshita Lang frowned.
"I have guessed something. The National Government printed too much legal currency, which devalued and reduced the purchasing power." Takeshita Jun shook his head. In this way, the people who suffer are actually the Chinese people, which is equivalent to drinking the blood of the people.
"Is this so?" Takeshita Hiroshi also frowned, "It's really, really scary."
Takeshita Jun nodded, "We also need to know more about the current situation of the Chinese people, and know ourselves and our enemies."
